    Oh dear, USAnians are in trouble because of their denial as to the consequences of the Global Economic Crisis... The "Climate Change" thread has been closed ??? No freedom of expression or any capacity to spread the truth of the matter in USA... There is lots of stuff everyone needs to understand and research... The end of the world will not be as in "Waterworld" nor plagues and pestillence or other events, - except when caused by mankind, directly or as "Collateral Damage"

    CALLING YOURSELVES "AMERICANS" is an arrogant and self important colonialist INSULT to all others resident in the CONTINENTAL LANDMASS known colloquially as the landmasses of North and South America and adjoining island nations... Are you so "superior" to a Canadian, Jamaican, Mexican, Cuban, Brazilian, Chilean, and the many other countries on whom you seek to heap insult with your petty and ANONYMOUS negative rep points "USAnians is derogetory"... Your CUNTry is USA I presume... What would you have others call you, collectively? Loosers? Read the link for affirmation of the fact from another USAnian...

    This link should answer a question posted elsewhere...

    Do talk to people, sensibly and with an open mind, about the Global Economic Crisis, Let then see and listen to a bit of Gerald Celente... He is a good researcher, (Trends Research), and has a gift of the gab and a lovely Jewish/Brooklyn accent, with knowledge to match - but it gets tedious and boringly repetitive, so "One Good Hit" is enough, then move on to the list of links, People seeking HONEST answers can do their own research and due diligence reading in their own time with these links...

    Be diligent now... There is lots to learn and understand and thoughts and ideas from AROUND the world that tell it like it is, no punches pulled, (well some that can be very hurtful, but sometimes the TRUTH is a bitter pill to swallow)... If you cannot handle the truth, You are DOOMED...

    If you have some free subscription sites that you find reliable and credible then post links here too.... The ones I have posted have good GLOBAL content as well as a little local stuff

    The entire "Western World" will likely succumb to the collapse due to the Global Economic Crisis, Which IS NOT OVER... It will GET LOTS WORSE... It is being hidden and disguised by the fraudulent and misguided activities of the Banksters and The US FED RESERVE bank which the Banksters OWN and use as their tool to manipulate EVERYTHING and almost ALL the leaders (business and politics) in USA...

    To survive as a small community you will need to securely hide behind a thickly planted barrier of trees to keep horses and horse drawn carriages from seeing or gaining ready access to your community.... Within that sanctuary grow, preserve and share your own fruits, vegetables and meat... Become TOTALLY independent of external supplies of electricity, water, sewerage, and EVERYTHING... Within years, all that will not be available as "public services" will cease to function...

    Well, Mas, you call yourself an Australian to the exlusion of all other countries on your island continent! :p
    We can argue about the impending Ice Age and its effects on boating here: http://www.boatdesign.net/forums/op...ce-age-north-30th-parallel-boating-36203.html

    What Ice age? Oh you mean all bank accounts frozen and fiat currencies (Paper stuff), becomes worth less than used toilet paper?

    Australia has only one "Internationally recognised Government" but that is of no consequence, as the many "Aboriginal" Nations are still recognisable as co-existing groups and collectively happy to use the word "Australian" with no conflict, as representative of the citizens and residents that may all carry the passport of Australia... Many Aboriginals identify themselves under their respective tribal collective noun... I know about 4, but do not ask me to type them as I do not know the correct spelling...

    Whereas USA is a legally recognised country within the bounds of North and South America, - therefore, the United States of America is a subset of those major landmasses... The Samoans are officially from Samoa and a little to the East is the US 'managed country of American Samoa... Ethnically some of the people there may be ethnically "Samoan" but all residents are either USAnians (for want of a better word) or American Samoans based on the Government and passport identification...

    NZ is a separate country to Australia however, (i understand that), visas are not necessary to travel between Australia and New Zealand by passport holders of either country... New Zealanders have several ethnic groups and may be referred to as Maori, Kiwi's, or New Zealanders as well as many permanent residents from other Pacific Island Nations...

    All the States and Territories of Australia come under the one Federal Government control and cover the territory in Antarctica, The State of Tasmania and 2 groups of islands in the Coral Sea between Sydney and NZ (Norfolk and Lord Howe Islands), and two groups of islands to the NW of Western Australia, being Cocos (Keeling) islands, and Christmas Islands and of course the main Australian landmass...

    Quite a few available, drifting freely in the floods, and / or not at their usual place of mooring...

    Let's stick to the subject

    "What u will choose if seawater rise 50M and u need to find other land "

    The end of the world as the subject stated, years ago, specifies the water rising to 50m!

    I don't have the data but I am willing to bet there isn't enough water or H2/O2 on the planet for that much water globally. The water above sea surface is only enough to just take some coast line out of the map.

    Why would all the water above sea level melt and liquify? High pressure? High pressure will bring abundant sunshine which may melt the poles and Greenland but will also create more vapor and violent storms just at higher pressure, so more water evaporating. With so much water on the tropical zone around the earth such a condition may be very temporary in either direction.
    When too much water vapor liquifies it actually lowers the pressure locally as it shrinks in volume, it also releases heat in the atmosphere.

    Of course all and any of that crap is enough to kill you, even if temporary as a phenomenon, it doesn't take much. Look what a few feet of water have done to the Australian plains.

    There is plenty of room for us still 50m up inland, as long as we are willing to cooperate and work together instead of against each other, we will survive.

    Nevertheless, we boaters, just need an excuse to just get out there in the water, even if we could survive on land. I am searching for land 51m in altitude as we speak :) I think I am at about 35m up and 600m away from high tide.

    There is but it will not happen... The numbers have been crunched... Ice resting on a landmass Antarctica and Greenland... That would knock out 90% plus of all arable land (good useable farmland), so no food :eek: The other way, if permanent ice forms 30 degrees from both poles then the rest (global ice age) is a foregone conclusion and ASSURED EXTINCTION of life on earth...

    Do your reading, the balance is very precarious, if life is to be sustained on this planet... The thread is for "giggles and shits" as one very distinguished member would put it - He is now a cruising live-aboard...

    Are you talking about human life or life in general?
    We keep finding life forms on earth that sustain conditions that could not be perceived as life sustaining, but are proven wrong everyday. The further down they go in the ocean the further they find life. Life under ice that is centuries old, life near mouths of volcanoes, you name it.
    As for human life if it is extinct it may be the only way the planet will not be prematurely destroyed, but we have a strong bias against that solution, don't we?

    Humans are social animals, their survival problems can only be addressed collectively, not individually. It would mean nothing for you or me to be the sole survivors if all others die, but if we die for the shake of others surviving, we have done something.

    Do your due dillegence and you too will find out... Try living self-sustain-ably on the moon, Mars, Jupiter or wherever else you fancy that is frozen or hot? about 300,000,000 years ago it came very close to sterility...

    That is very secular humanist of you. Some us will take strong umbrage at any attempt to " thin our herd".
